Cradle Module

1

The cradle module is a central component in the following connectivity peripherals:

• port replicator
• high-usage cradle
• high-connectivity cradle
• wall-mount cradle

The cradle module holds the pen tablet when it is inserted in these connectivity peripherals. Two types of
cradle modules are available, a locking version (cradle module FMW26CR8), and a non-locking version
(cradle module FMW26CR28). The non-locking version is not equipped with the tubular lock and cradle
latches that are present on the locking version. The locking version of the cradle module is used to
assemble locking versions of connectivity peripherals while the non-locking version of the cradle module
is used to assemble the non-locking connectivity peripherals.

Assembly and installation instructions given in this manual generally refer to the locking version of the
cradle module; however, these instructions also apply to the non-locking version (with the exception of
instructions regarding locking and latching the pen tablet into the cradle module).

The Portable Port Expander

1

The portable port expander is best suited for mobile computing tasks where a quick and temporary
connection to peripheral computer equipment is needed and the pen tablet alone does not provide the
necessary connectivity.

The portable port expander is shipped from the factory fully assembled and ready for use. The portable
port expander is equipped with a mechanical latch and spacer that help secure the portable port expander
to the pen tablet. Before using the portable port expander, confirm that the latch and spacer are installed
on the portable port expander. See “Portable Port Expander” on page 2-1 for details.
